"I was in London to be with my brother [former prime minister Nawaz Sharif] as he underwent medical treatment," Shehbaz, wearing a face mask to protect himself from the coronavirus, said while speaking to the media at the airport.

"The doctor that was supposed to treat my brother was on holiday, but he has now returned and will give an appointment for my brother's heart procedure soon," the former Punjab chief minister said.

"The country is going through a tough time at the moment. That is why my brother and I decided it would be best for me to return before all international flights were banned. We will fight this [virus] together," he said.
